I would if I had extra money, even if I did though the big question would be which one should I donate to?

Which instance? I'm on many of them.

(Some are Mastodon, those ones have more content than shown in search but microblog content isn't visible to Lemmy)

Even if I could donate to one of them I couldn't donate to all of them.

Wish I had some money. But it would also be kinda nice to see how much money they need to fulfill the server costs, while also showing us how much they already get.

I do remember that blahaj zone is rather expensive with some thousands per month I think.

Would be nice to have some transparency about this, kinda like catbox does it on their homepage

If I recall correctly, that cost was a large blowout due to an expensive provider, and blahaj has now migrated to a provider that has more reasonable fees.

[-] Smorty@lemmy.blahaj.zone 18 points 4 days ago

Do we have a numeric value on how expensive it is currently?
I am asking because of curiosity, but also because I would like to host my own at some point, and it would give me some insight.

Also: hiiii!!1!11 from blahaj zone!!! <3
Idk why, seeing someone from my instance always makes me feel so comfy, like woah it's like we are neighbours!! even though we are really not, but I like to imagine

I have a quite small instance costing me $223 per year. I outline this and the current donations on my opencollective. https://opencollective.com/thelemmyclub

But I can cover these costs myself so I don't push it much. If we ever grow much I'll probably stop allowing signups, don't have time to run a bigger instance, and the money could begin to be an issue too.

Wikipedia style: if everybody who visited gave X we would be funded for 1.5 years.

They mentioned it back some months ago, maybe you can still find it in c/main.

PayPal only :(

They shadowbanned me for some reason.
Every fucking payment (if they even allow guest payment):

By the way, great job centering that bottom text.

Now this is where my screenshot of the finished payment would go!

That is, if Ii had money!

Time to upvote and not donate.

[-] gerryflap@feddit.nl 1 points 3 days ago

I used to at lemmy.world, but my current instance doesn't seem to accept donations.

[-] Smorty@lemmy.blahaj.zone 4 points 4 days ago* (last edited 4 days ago)

Oh, sorry.

XD
